water changing to a solid: freezing
movement of particles: vibration in fixed positions.
arrangement: fixed positions (bonds between every particle). moving closer together
water as a liquid:
movement of particles: move about (slide past each other)
arrangement: close together with no regular arrangement
water to gas: boiling
movement of particles: free/random movement at high speeds.
arrangement: particles move further apart with no bonds between particles.

How does the motion of the particles change wen waterchsanges from liquid to a solid to a liquid to get gas?

Heat is what in motion?
As energy is added to a substance, the particles that make up the substance vibrate faster. This is what causes substances to change state (solid to liquid to gas). As the particles move faster, the structure changes.
In random motion how are particles moving?
The direction of their motion changes randomly.
Describe how the motion and arrangements of particles change as a substance freezes?
The particles get so attracted to each other making them form into a solid
Do particles in Mercury collide with one another?
All particles of all things are in constant motion. Particles in a liquid collide, but the rate is subdued by the viscosity of the liquid.
Determind by motion and spacing of particles?
The substance's state (solid / liquid / gas), density, temperature, etc, is determined by motion and spacing of particles.
What are two ways to change the state of a substance?
Substances can change state, usually when they are heated or cooled. For example, liquid water turns into steam when it is heated enough, and it turns into ice when it is cooled enough. The closeness, arrangement and motion of the particles in a substance change when it changes state.
Does heating slow down the motion or particles?
No heating something up actually does the opposite, when a substance is heated the particles begin moving faster and this leads to change of state from solid to liquid to gas.

What is bvrownian motion?
That would be Brownian motion. That refers to small particles (for example, dust particles) suspended in a liquid or gas exhibiting random behavior - this is caused by liquid or gas molecules bumping into the dust particle.
How molecular motion changes as a substance changes from one state to another?
Molecular motion is less constrained in liquid than in solid and is less constrained in gas than in liquid.
